My favourite thing to do is watch movies while crocheting or cross stitching. I also love to cook and am always on the look out for new recipes. I am a huge Disney fan and try to visit Disneyland any chance I can! For more about me, please go here.

Peter and I are planning on putting in a garage pad this spring. It is turning out to be a little more expensive than we thought, unfortunately. We were hoping to spend around $3500 for a 24x24ft pad. We have changed our minds and have decided to have the pad span the whole width of the yard. So it would be a 34x24ft pad. It is estimated that it would cost $7000. Ugh. That is all of our savings. I mean thank goodness that we have a renter in our basement and so we will that bit of extra cash coming in. But I am going to Disney World in September with my mom and I want to save up some money for that. It is an expensive world I tell yah! :{

Happy Easter to everyone. Because I am on WW, I haven’t had a lot of chocolate. And that’s okay because I really don’t need it anyway. I did have a peanut butter egg today and we had a delicious Easter dinner last night. 😛 I mean what is the point of being on WW, as opposed to any other stricter diet, if I am not allowed to treat myself once in a while.

I leave you with an adorable picture of a slightly overweight “Puss In Boots” from the upcoming Shrek Forever After

That’s quite a lot of money to spend, but I’m guessing it will be an investment and increase the value of your house as well? It’s better to spend the money on a garage pad than shoes or something, lol :upsidedown: I think I’d slightly panic about using my savings no matter what I would spend them on, but that’s just because I’m terrified of not having enough money in case something happens :blank:
